This book is on carbohydrates-the essential molecules that give you
energy. They are the building blocks of life. This book delivers
up-to-date coverage on all aspects of carbohydrate chemistry. The
molecules are sometimes sugars, i.e. "sweet," hence the subtitle
"The Sweet Molecules of Life."

Carbohydrates first gives the "nuts and bolts" of
carbohydrate chemistry, enabling the reader to appreciate the
subsequent chapters on protecting groups and the reactions of
monosaccharides. (The protecting groups do just that-they are put
on the molecules as a temporary measure during one or more
reactions to stop the wrong bit of the molecule being changed
during that reaction.)
